I am Installing Elive

It is the Linux System, I recommend to a newbie. Its installation is SLOW but lot of pauses  and detailed insyructions including making partitions.

It recommends old E16 Desktop for installation but can change it to E27 later.

It configures WiFi effortlessly.

It vam be installed in a single partition which is a plus point.

It has Gparted.

I gave 10GB but it recommends 20GB which is the standard for Linux.

I hope it recognize my GRUB.

It has taken 7GB and I have 3GB left.

Thank YOU, it gave all these information while installing.

It took about 750MB from my 8GB RAM while runming live and installing.

Very important point I forgot.

It got the numbers of my Partition Table wrong.

It read 14 as 10.

It does not mount the EFI partition and I could not select a boot partition to Boot.

I checked the remaining space using Gparted and has only 275MB left.

LibreOffice is 25.2.

One has to sit with it and follow imstructions.

Select and Deselect packages not used which an excellent option.

I used only Inkscape.

Have several browser options including Opera and Palemoon.

Use the Terminal at the End for purging.

I believe Internet is essential.

Glad that I Revited Elive.

It has done a lot to impress even an old Linux User.

Thank YOU again.

I am a pensioner and I wish I could have contributed a few quids.

I do not have an Internet connection.

I used for few weeks and it very costly in Australia.

I love looking at the Terminal which is lacking in Debian except when installing new applications.

It is frozen and I am going for a cuppa.

It got my Partition Table wrong.

That is why it did not boot.

It did not vonfigure the GRUB but did not ruin it.

It would not boot but I know how to fix.

Reinstall Manjaro.

That's it.

No, it ruined my spare Debian Instance.

I have to install Debian swiching 14 for 10 I lost. This is the advantage of having partitioned installation.

I jave to remeber number 10 and 14 only.

Both have 10GB capacity.

Elive only has 495MB for any additional applications and Blender is out on first count.

I still recommend Elive Linux for a newbie.

One learns a lot by making unintended mistakes in Linux.

This piece with some editions is going to be in my book of "Linux Essentials".

It will come out only in January.

I am already on holiday mood.
